Anakin was checking his chrono as the class arrived. "We're going to be very on-time today because I have to travel with my wife and family up to Connecticut to go to an unnaturally large number of Thanksgivings on Thursday," he said. "I think we're up to five."
He shook his head. "There's going to be so much pie. That said," he waved his hands at the set-up before him, which looked very much like a made for TV movie Thanksgiving table, complete with the weird wicker cornocopeia thing full of miniature pumpkins, "--today we're going to remember the art of small talk and not beating dense relatives over the head with a holiday decoration."
Ask him how many times he'd been tempted. Assssssk him.
"The pies are real," he added. "I've found having my mouth full stops me--usually--from saying things like 'just how stupid are you?'"

Re: Make small talk!
Maybe? Guess she'd find out!
